Compliance gets the headlines. The architecture is why it actually works on every pay run.
Workzoom reads directly from the same system as HR and Workforce. No re-entry, no sync errors across your island locations.
Salary changes, new hires, and terminations take effect on the exact date they happen, across all locations. Workzoom picks them up automatically.
Before each pay run, Workzoom flags missing NIB rates, incomplete records, and compliance gaps. Issues surface before the run, not after.
Cable Bahamas runs payroll for 850 employees in 1.5 days. Their previous process took 5. Per the Cable Bahamas case study, that is a 70% reduction in payroll processing time on the same team.

Resolve exceptions before cutoff. Review outputs before submission.
Capture time through the method configured for your team, such as mobile, web, a terminal or manual timesheet entry.
Managers correct and approve daily exceptions, including missing punches and extra time worked. Approve time before the payroll cutoff for the relevant period.
Process Bahamas payroll with NIB contributions and statutory reporting. Review the C10 and bank-file outputs before your team submits them.
Generate the configured payment file for your team to upload to its bank. Confirm the format and bank acceptance process during implementation.
Employees retrieve PDF pay stubs from self-service, with prior stubs kept in their pay history.
Every requirement below is handled by the platform on every pay run, not configured per-customer.
Bahamas payroll software calculates National Insurance Board (NIB) employer and employee contributions automatically at current statutory rates on every pay run, with the insurable earnings ceiling applied. Both portions appear separately on payslips.

The NIB C10 Form is the employer monthly contribution statement. Workzoom generates the contribution-statement data from the Bahamas payroll run for the employer to review and submit to the National Insurance Board. No separate spreadsheet or manual calculation is required.

Multi-island payroll processing across Nassau, Freeport, Grand Bahama, and the Family Islands runs from a single system with location-specific work rules, cost centers, and pay structures.
reduction in payroll processing time
Per the Cable Bahamas case study, payroll processing time was cut from 5 days to 1.5 days, a 70% reduction across 850 employees.
Moving to Workzoom was the right move. It allowed our dynamic report and payment structures the flexibility we needed at the right price too!

The story
Use an agreed sample employee, approved hours and a pay change. Review the payroll register and employer and employee NIB contributions, then compare the resulting C10 and payment-file outputs.
Change one input after the first calculation. Ask the demonstrator to show the recalculated pay, approval record and downstream report changes. Keep those outputs as acceptance criteria for implementation. This is a proposed evaluation scenario, not a benchmark from a customer payroll.
The story
Workzoom prepares payroll reporting and the configured bank file. Your team reviews and submits reports and uploads payment files through its bank. Confirm who checks acceptance and handles a rejected file or amended report.
Bring the bank format and pay frequencies you use. A generated file is not evidence that your bank has accepted it or that an employee has received payment.
The story
Cable Bahamas has used Workzoom since December 2021. It reports a reduction from 5 days to 1.5 days for 850 employees, with three payroll staff managing the process. Its published story describes the move from spreadsheets between HR and payroll to connected time and pay.
Use that example to evaluate the handoffs your own team wants to remove. The result belongs to Cable Bahamas and is not a promised saving or a comparison with another vendor.
The story
The Payroll Suite is US$4 per employee per month with a US$400 monthly minimum. HR, Workforce and Talent can be added at US$4 each. All four suites are US$16 per employee per month with a US$700 monthly minimum. Implementation, migration, training and support are included. Taxes and optional extras are separate.
